Flower from diamond in Scratch
The Project
Diamond Flower Maker is a beautiful and creative Scratch project where the Scratch Cat moves randomly and independently to create a stunning flower pattern made of diamond shapes. The cat’s random movement allows it to create multiple diamonds, which come together to form a larger flower-like design. How it works: The Scratch Cat moves randomly across the screen using the random movement feature. As the cat moves, it continuously draws small diamond shapes in random positions. These individual diamond shapes come together to form a flower pattern over time. The movement is independent, meaning the cat doesn’t follow a fixed path but instead moves and places diamonds randomly, allowing the design to evolve organically. This project demonstrates: Random movement using blocks like “move random steps” and “turn random” to make the cat move in any direction. Pen extension to draw diamond shapes and create the flower effect. Independence in sprite behavior, allowing the cat to draw without following a strict pattern, creating a more natural, free-flowing design. Pattern creation by combining small elements (diamonds) to form a larger structure (flower). It’s an engaging project that combines random movement, drawing with the pen tool, and creative design to make a visually interesting and unique flower pattern each time the project is run. How to Implement: Cat's Random Movement: Use the “move random steps” and “turn random degrees” to allow the cat to move unpredictably. Drawing Diamonds: Use pen down, and draw a diamond shape by making the cat move in a small square or using 45-degree turns to form a diamond pattern. Flower Pattern Formation: Repeat the movement and drawing process using loops, so as the cat moves randomly, it continues to draw diamonds that together form a flower-like shape.
